One of the major challenge of managing Oracle Solaris server is finding out where the host really resides. The system administrator can't just assume that every Solaris shell they login into is the global zone. Even more problems could arise if the administrator is new or the system just have been handed over to them.

One way to find out which the Solaris container resides is by using this long command :

Recently I've tried to install modified firmware on my TP-Link MR-3220. It's a decent wifi router, in my opinion. It has a USB port so it can be connected with wireless modems. But I found some difficulties from it. Some modems I owned cannot be detected, while some other can be used, but really hard to connect with the non-bundled network provider. (The wifi router is positioned on the second floor of 3 stories building, so the wireless broadband signal is not good enough).

And then I found OpenWRT. The aim of OpenWRT is basically to replace the stock firmware of wireless router to an open-source, linux based operating system. It even got it's own package manager (OPKG). With it, my broadband modem finally works with the MR-3220 and non-bundled internet provider.

After four years of service (as I remember), my external hd drive finally about to meet its end. I'm hearing squeaking and clicking noise from it. Then I think before it getting worse, I need to backup the data to another media. A long time ago, I already heard about the tool : "dd" - that is able to backup even a broken hard drive. So, I decided to give it a try.

The command is simple. I just use

dd if=/dev/sdc1 of=/home/myname/imagefile conv=noerror,sync

/dev/sdc1 is the partition that I wanted to backup, and after the of= argument, I put the target image file. The noerror option simply made the reading process going even if an error is found, and the sync option.... I'm not sure about it :p. I use it because the tutorials on the web also use it.

A long 'vacuum-of-bloging' isn't it ?

Well since I got two blog pages, it's so hard to be fair on them. (Actually my other blog isn't updated also). I've been busy all this long, preparing my final project on bachelor degree. The exam will be held on January 28, 2008.

Ask: But why do you still able to write unecessary things right now ?Answer : My draft report have been collected by the department's administration, and the only thing need to be prepared right now is my presentation and handouts. But, I feel like the D-Day is so far away. And right now I don't know what to do to fill up my leisure time. Maybe tomorrow I'll start preparing the presentation.
